Finding the Flying Plant walkthrough

The elderly man in Suthorn Village wants to cheer his wife up by showing her a flying plant, which is actually the Peahat Echo. So to complete the 'Finding the Flying Plant' side quest in Zelda Echoes of Wisdom, all you have to do is select the Peahat Echo in front of the elderly man, to show it off to him.

You might already have Peahat, as you get the Echo by defeating your first Peahat enemy. If you don't have one, just like the elderly man hints at, Peahats are easily found in the eastern cave in Suthorn Forest.
